About this dive site

This dive site, known as Los 3 Amigos, is characterized by three distinct seamounts set against a backdrop of rocky and sandy topography. It is a small but very easy dive site, suitable for all levels of divers due to its shallow maximum depth and calm conditions. Navigation is straightforward, circling the seamounts to explore the varied habitats they provide.

Divers can expect to encounter a wide variety of marine life. The site is particularly rich in macro life, including various crustaceans, nudibranchs, and other small invertebrates. The mixed rocky and sandy bottom also attracts larger inhabitants, with a big chance to observe different kinds of rays, as well as common Mediterranean fish species like seabreams and octopuses.

The best time to visit Los 3 Amigos is typically from late spring through early autumn when water temperatures are warmer and visibility is generally at its best. Its shallow average depth and gentle nature make it an ideal spot for both recreational scuba divers seeking a relaxed dive and freedivers looking to explore the seamounts and observe marine life on a single breath-hold. It's a great spot for underwater photography, both macro and wide-angle.
